Comparison Chart: Ipamorelin vs. Other GH Secretagogues in Preclinical Research

Ipamorelin Strong Minimal (preclinical) High selectivity profile observed in animal models GHRP-6 Moderate to High Moderate Earlier generation; less selective GHRP-2 Similar selectivity concerns as GHRP-6 CJC-1295 Minimal Acts on GHRH receptor, not ghrelin rec

  • Ipamorelin
  • Strong
  • Minimal (preclinical)
  • High selectivity profile observed in animal models
  • GHRP-6
  • Moderate to High
  • Moderate
  • Earlier generation; less selective
  • GHRP-2
  • Similar selectivity concerns as GHRP-6
  • CJC-1295
  • Minimal
  • Acts on GHRH receptor, not ghrelin receptor; different mechanism
  • Sermorelin
  • GHRH analog; acts upstream of Ipamorelin's target
